MSDN: Catch Up with Microsoft Rich Client Technologies for 2008

Date
Thu, 26 Feb 2009, 13:30 (Add to calendar) GMT
Venue
The Lowry , Manchester, GB
Cost
Free

In this half-day session we’ll do a refresh of the technologies that we can use to build rich, interactive clients with .NET in 2008. We’ll take a look at how we can be cross-platform, cross-browser with Silverlight 2 and yet get the full development experience of a .NET application and then we’ll explore how we can take that further with the Windows Presentation Foundation V3.5 Service Pack 1 which allows for the richest, most-productive development model for Windows applications. There’ll be lots of demos and code as we bring you bang-up-to-date with what’s happening in the world of Microsoft clients.Silverlight 2: From ScratchWindows Presentation Foundation: From Scratch

    Manchester Magento User Group November Meetup

    0km away in Manchester

    Right chaps this is the third Magento meetup so I've decided its time to make it an earlier timeslot and a change of venue! The meet has evolved into more of a networking event with technical discussions along the way. We have over 10 members now but I have many more people emailing myself with queries every week. Join the group and come along - you're sure to meet some potential business partners, or at the very least learn some tips and tricks.
